The Pulpit Commentary - Leviticus 16:1-34

The great Day of Atonement ( Leviticus 16:29-31 ). One day in the year set apart to the most solemn representation possible of the two facts—the sinfulness of man, the righteous love of God. Atonement underlying the whole of the ceremonial Law, but the insufficiency of the dally sacrifices, set forth by the separation of one day for the special sacrifice, thus pointing to one atonement in which all other atone-meats should be perfected. Solemn warning in the death of the two sons of... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Leviticus 16:1-34

The climax of sacrificial worship, the Day of Atonement. cf. John 1:29 ; 1 Corinthians 5:7 ; Hebrews 9:10 . The sacrifices already considered all bring out with more or less emphasis the idea of atonement. But to render this cardinal idea of our religion still more emphatic, it was ordained that the tenth day of the seventh month in each year should be a day of special humiliation on the part of the people, and special ritual on the part of the priests. The directions about it were... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Leviticus 16:2-17

Type and antitype-the priest. The high priest offering sacrifices for the sin of the people was a clear type of" the High Priest of our profession," who offered the one sacrifice for sin, who became the Propitiation for our sin, even for the sins of the whole world ( 1 John 2:2 ). We have— I. FOUR FEATURES OF RESEMBLANCE . 1 . Aaron acted under Divine direction. He was appointed by God to take the post he took, and was charged to do everything he did. He might not deviate... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Leviticus 16:5-28

The sacrifices of the Day of Atonement. Upon ordinary occasions sacrifices might be offered by common priests, who might act as representatives of the high priest or as representatives of the people, and so be types of Christ, or types of Christians. But upon this day the high priest must act in person, which leaves no doubt as to these transactions being eminently emblematical of Christ and of his great work. We notice— I. THE OFFERINGS FOR AARON AND HIS HOUSE . (See ... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Leviticus 16:7-8

It must be carefully noted that. as the two goats made one sin offering ( Leviticus 16:5 ), so they are both presented before the Lord at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation. By this solemn presentation they became the Lord's, one as much as the other. After this, Aaron is to cast lots upon the two goats. The two goats, of the same size and appearance as far as possible, stood together near the entrance of the court. And by them was an urn containing two lots. These the high... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Leviticus 16:7-22

Type and antitype-the offering. The most striking feature of the whole service on the great Day of Atonement was the action of the high priest in regard to the two goats brought to the tabernacle door ( Leviticus 16:7 ). They clearly point to that "Lamb of God" who came to "take away the sin of the world" ( John 1:29 ). That there were two goats rather than one presents no difficulty at all; there might well have been more than one to typify the Sacrifice which they foreshadowed. We... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Leviticus 16:9-10

These verses might be translated as follows:— And Aaron shall bring in the goat upon which the lot for the Lord fell, and shall offer him for a sin offering. But the goat, upon which fell the lot for a remover of sins, shall be presented alive before the Lord, to make an atonement with him, and to send him away for a remover of sins into the wilderness. We are justified in inserting the words, "of sins," after "a remover," because "the use of the word azal, from which the word rendered by... read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Leviticus 16:8

The two goats formed a single sin-offering, Leviticus 16:5. To bring out the meaning of the sacrifice it was necessary that the act of a living being should be performed after death. See Leviticus 16:22 note. As this could not possibly be visibly set forth with a single victim, two were employed, as in the case of the birds in the rite for the healed leper Leviticus 14:4-6.For the scapegoat - Rather, for Azazel. The word occurs nowhere else in the Old Testament but in this chapter, and is... read more

On which the lot fell to be the scapegoat - Rather, on which the lot ‘for Azazel’ fell.An atonement with him - The goat “for Azazel” was to be considered as taking his part along with the other goat in the great symbol of atonement.For a scapegoat into the wilderness - Rather, “to Azazel, into the wilderness.” read more

Leviticus 16:7. He shall present them before the Lord The scape-goat was presented at the door of the tabernacle before the Lord, as well as the other goat, to signify that they were both consecrated to him; indeed they both made but one sin-offering, Leviticus 16:5. read more
